Chapter 51 - M-My Daughter And Theo ??
"That ..." Yuki was in a tight spot... she had just finished digesting the pill Theo had given her, but the moment she opened her eyes, Theo was no longer beside her. She looked from one side to the other... until she eventually found him. 'But who was that little girl on his lap?'
"Papa, it's delicious, I want more!" The little girl on Theo's lap asked.
"P-Papa...??? W-When did this happen? Is she the daughter of Theo and Shina? No, no, no, I've always been with them, there's no way they could have... even more so such a big daughter..." Yuki was almost on the verge of insanity. She didn't know what to do nor know what was happening, she even thought she was having a nightmare. "Aiii!" The moment she pinched herself, she noticed that she was not asleep.
The moment the little girl in Theo's lap heard a scream, she stood on his lap and looked in Yuki's direction. Seeing that Yuki was looking at her and was no longer meditating, the little girl had a very happy expression... she gave a big silly smile and began to celebrate. "UWA... UWA... Mommy's looking at me!!"
Looking at this young child who seemed to be 10 years old, calling for her mom ... Yuki was overwhelmed by confusion. She looked back to see if anyone was there but eventually realized the little girl was talking about her.
"M-My and Theo's daughter??" Yuki was even more confused, but looking right at the little girl, she noticed that she looked a bit like her... the little girl had gorgeous white hair with green eyes and a pair of horns on her forehead. She also had a pair of small silver wings behind her back.
Theo also turned to Yuki and saw that she had finished consuming the pill. Seeing her confused expression, he couldn't hold himself from laughing. For he himself was confused also confused when he began to be called Papa, although his situation was a bit more enlightening. Yuki, however, did not know that this little dragon loli actually used to be the Dragon's Egg, which Yuki had been taking care of with a lot of affection.
"T-Theo? This... how did this happen? And when did we have a d-daughter?" Looking at Theo staring at her, Yuki asked confused.
Theo stood up from his chair, carrying Yui the dragon loli, and walked toward Yuki. Coming close to Yuki, Theo began to explain. "This girl was in the Dragon's Egg that we've been taking care of until today..."
Even before Theo could finish explaining... the little girl Yui, began to agitate in Theo's hold.
Theo sighed and set her down. When Yui landed on the floor, she turned to Theo, showing her pink tongue to Theo and laughed in a mischievous way. Then she ran off to Yuki.
Instinctively, Yuki bent down and the little Yui hugged her. Yuki was surprised for a moment but hugged the little girl back. Yui gave a happy laugh, and in the midst of her laughter, she said cheerfully, "Mama, Mama!!"
Yuki, who smelled the little girl, found it familiar and remembering that Theo said she was in the Dragon's Egg, it was not difficult to find out more or less what had happened. But she was still in doubt... 'Why is she calling me Mom?' Even if she does, she thought Theo would explain to her later.
After the little girl let go of Yuki's embrace. She started to pull Yuki with her little hand as she said, "Come, Mama, Papa brought something delicious for me to eat. Come eat with me!"
Seeing the happy smile of the girl pulling her, Yuki gave up and walked with her toward the table. She began to find this girl very cute and couldn't help but want to hug her again. Even though she did not quite understand what was happening, Yuki took the girl on her lap and hugged her tightly, making the little girl smile happily.
Theo could not help but smile either, finding this scene very cute. Luckily he had a very good memory, so he decided to keep that cute scene in his mind. Theo even thought they could be confused as mother and daughter {TL: I mean… they technically are?}, since in this world, it is normal not to know the age of people who have a relatively high cultivation. Or even with a lovely little sister and her beautiful older sister.
The moment Yuki and little girl Yui sat down at the table. Theo said, "I'll get another piece of cake, and I'll explain what's going on."
"Yes," Yuki agreed.
Theo went to the fridge with a plate and a spoon in his hand and took a piece of cake {TL: Wait, how many ppl eat cake with a spoon? I'm so used to using a fork}, looking for the milk as well, which Theo took and brought to the table. Serving 2 cups of milk for them, he sat down beside them.
"Thirsty!" Little Yui said when seeing the glass of milk. Theo smiled at her and put the glass of milk in her hands. She held the glass with her small hands and took the glass to her mouth and began to drink... the moment she got a taste of the milk, her eyes glittered with stars and she began to drink the milk without stopping.
"Huaa! Yummy!" Little Yui said as she finished drinking all the milk. "More!"
"Yes, yes!" Yuki and Theo smiled, finding her very cute.
After almost drinking the whole gallon of milk, which Theo had brought, she again wanted to eat cake.
Theo was not surprised that she liked the milk so much. Not only because she was a newborn, but also because this was milk he bought from her system. And in the information of when he bought it, it said that it was milk with a lot of mana. Well, the cake he made was with that same milk, so it was so tasty as well. Theo did not mind spending his points on these things, as they were not only tasty but helped in their cultivation, even if not in an alarming amount. But as that saying goes; Grain by grain the hen fills her belly {TL: Literal translation}.
Theo turned to Yuki and said, "Yuki, remember the Moon Lotus Flower, right?" Seen her nodding, Theo continued, "So it seems that when I left it inside the [Dimensional Room]. The energy that resided in it was digested by the Dragon's Egg and because of this, it accelerated the process of the Egg hatching."
"So that's what happened..." Yuki nodded in understanding, but then another question came into her mind. "But why does she call me Mama and you Papa?"
Holding the spoon close to her mouth, which was covered with a little bit of cake, she looked at Yuki and said, "Because Mama is Mama and Papa is Papa!" She turned to Theo and said, "Néehhh!!!" {TL: Kind of like saying 'Right?' for confirmation}
Theo found it very cute and smiled and also said: "Nééehh!!"
"Hehehehe!"
The little girl started laughing loudly and then went back to eating her cake.
Theo who looked at Yuki could swear he could see a lot of question marks on her head. Though she thought her being confused was cute, Theo thought it was best to explain it to her. He moved a little closer to her and began to whisper in Yuki's ear, so that little Yui couldn't hear.

First, sorry for the wait, I'm finally back from the trip! And if you are asking, no, I did not have internet during most of it... *cough cough*Camping*cough cough* (Wew it's already 2:36 am)
And second, during the translations, there are several options from the original Portuguese 'Papai'. The main three: Dad, Daddy, Papa. Until now I've used Dad, but doesn't really sound affectionate enough so comment which of those should be better, or just keep using 'Dad'. Same for Yuki: Mom, Mommy or Mama.
